Carter Newell's most important and valued resource is its people. Each member of the team has belief in and is passionate about what they do on behalf of their clients.

Our clients regard us as their business partners, which differentiates us from other legal service providers. We see ourselves as an extension of each client’s business and aim to provide high quality legal services to help our clients achieve their commercial goals. It is not only our expertise, but also our dedication to being the best we can be, that ensures we deliver on this client commitment.

With 15 partners and approximately 150 staff, the firm’s ‘One Team’ philosophy emphasises co-operation across each of the firm’s practice areas to deliver the best outcomes for clients.

Our partners lead the way and live by the firm’s values and philosophies. Our partners adopt a very 'hands on' approach to handling matters on behalf of clients. Where appropriate, if they themselves are the best person for the job, they will personally provide high-level advice, as well as representation at mediations and conferences.

A partner is assigned to each client, therefore ensuring that a client can always contact their designated partner, who ultimately bears all responsibility for the quality and delivery of the work being undertaken for them.
